Yea, that's just textbook terrible situational football. I don't envy him in the film room Monday morning.

That's my thought.

Can anyone please explain to me what scouts saw in Dobson over K Allen?

I was screaming literally screaming at the TV for patriots to draft Allen over Dobson in round 2. To this day I will never understand

Way guys are playing there'll be Space for Cadet

Not sure about that block in back call. Seems like the defender turned away mid block and was out of the play more or less. Tough call.

yep cadets better

I've pretty much arrived at the point where I've moved past the sunken cost of a 2nd on Dobson. He has potential but he keeps brain farting. If we are gonna keep a young receiver with upside I would probably rather keep and develop Harper at this point.

Why does Carolina have its starting offense out there?

Logan Ryan is in. Watch for disaster.

Dobson is getting roasted on twitter, geez.

Allen had injury concerns relating to his knee, and he has trouble getting separation (although he's effective anyway, kinda like Anquan Boldin).

Oh Ebner....

I'm pretty sure teams were a little scared off by an injury Allen had at the time.

Jordan Richards did a REALLY good job diagnosing that play.

Flowers- great shed and tackle. His stock keeps rising.

Flowers plays & looks bigger than I thought.

McClain giving up some yards.

This second string secondary sucks.

Been watching Jordan Richards this drive, the guy knows where he needs to be. He's been real solid so far.
